(I was forbidden to date my high school boyfriend because he was a senior while I was a freshman. We dated for 4 years. He was a good guy.)


Yep. Welcome him into your home so that you know where they are.

My 15 yo sophmore (DS) has been dating a 17 yo senior (girl) for the last 6 months. They are so happy and sweet together. It has been great for both of them.

My 15 year old son dated a 17 year old female junior for about four months. Nothing crazy, but I think he's still a little smitten now that he's a senior.

Apples and oranges though when the girl is younger.

My 15 year old freshman dates a junior. He's 17. He doesn't drive, they see each other at sports practices and at school. I've never thought twice about it, and I'm a strict type parent I think it depends on the kids involved. I met the boy early on and I am a big fan. He's a sweet guy and kind to my daughter. Not sleeping together or spending much time alone together, so perhaps my feelings would change if that changed. It's not a factor right now.

This is PP and how old of a Junior? My DS will 17yo right at the beginning of his Junior year, while some Juniors will be 16. That year makes a difference.

I did when I was 14, and no way in hell would I allow if I was in the same position.

I really think that's too big of an age difference. If these kids end of up having sex, the boy could get into a lot of trouble.

You can't stop it. You can either be aware of what's going on or lied to.

That’s a huge difference in age and maturity.

Is he a popular jock-y type or a nerdy inexperienced type?

It entirely depends on the individuals in question. Also, check laws in your state.

I have a young freshman daughter who wants to date a Junior. When I was 15 I dated an 18 y/o, but know that it was NOT ideal (in hindsight, of course). I'm curious what other parents think?
